Where's Waldo?
« on: October 12, 2016, 04:42:44 PM »
Is there something amiss?  I see tracers triple the size of an entire airplane.... and a gun pit several thousand feet beyond, I see gun pits quadruple the size....    :airplane:

Look folks, it's not going to be easy trying to fit life size image into a couple thousand pixel widths, but for the sake of something worthy of any pilot that is not legally blind, I would have to say this is too much.   Or we could take the sarcasm route and ask that the tracers, and gun pits be scaled proportionally.

I think that HiTech had it right at first, and now ................   :headscratch:

Yes, he had it right to begin with and many, many veterans (game veterans, not veteran veterans) even complained that they were too hard to see. From a video making position I would like for them to have remained as they were.

I like this video, because it recreates what I see in combat gun camera footages.

BTW, I found Waldo sniping our strats and pushed right up on him.

Okay, HiTech informed me on something that hadn't occurred to me.  The fog settings in the melee arena are different than offline and that setting renders different dot visibility.  So, this is a screenshot from the melee arena and the plane possibly light bomber was just beyond 6k yds or icon range. It's the dot that is right at the top of the hill about mid screen.

Looks like a dark and blurry + sign, but I think if it was rendered at 4k it would be a dot.
